An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-28968 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Juniper Junos. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28968/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28968/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-28968","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28968/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-28968","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xghw-5mm2-r3q7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Juniper SRX firewall","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can bypass security policies on Juniper SRX devices by exploiting a flaw in the JDPI-Decoder, causing traffic to pass without inspection.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"juniper","cpe":[{"product":"appid_service_sigpack","vendor":"juniper"},{"product":"jdpi-decoder_engine","vendor":"juniper"},{"product":"junos","vendor":"juniper"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-770","name":"Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling"},{"id":"CWE-1325","name":"Improperly Controlled Sequential Memory Allocation"}],"description":"An Improperly Controlled Sequential Memory Allocation vulnerability in the Juniper Networks Deep Packet Inspection-Decoder (JDPI-Decoder) Application Signature component of Junos OS's AppID service on SRX Series devices will stop the JDPI-Decoder from identifying dynamic application traffic, allowing an unauthenticated network-based attacker to send traffic to the target device using the JDPI-Decoder, designed to inspect dynamic application traffic and take action upon this traffic, to instead begin to not take action and to pass the traffic through.
